Ibrahim to Nasir al-Mulk
Letter from Ibrahim to Nasir al-Mulk, the governor of Kurdistan, in which he talks about the health of his children, Aqa Muhsin and Khanum Kuchulu, after their erysipelas disease and Aqa Mirza Hasan Hakim Bashi's mistake in using the right dosage of sodium bromide to treat them.
